7 Adjusting Entries Work sheet Journal form Post them to the ledger Adjusted Trial Balance

8 Closing Entries Summary – Income statement: net income or net loss for a specific accounting period. (data found in revenue and expense accounts) New accounting period = revenue and expense accounts should show zero balances. “Matching principle” – revenue for each accounting period is matched with the expenses for that accounting period to determine net income or loss. Closing the books: the process by which revenue and expense accounts are reduced to zero at the end of each accounting period.

9 Temporary (vs) Permanent Accounts Temporary accounts: – Contain information for the current accounting period only – Balances not carried over to next accounting period – Examples: Revenue & Expense accounts Permanent accounts: – Balances are carried forward from one accounting period to another (they are not closed – put to 0) – Examples: Asset, Liability, & Owner’s Equity accounts

10 Purpose of Closing the Books 1)Prepare Revenue and Expense accounts for the next accounting period (by reducing them to 0) 2) Updating the Owner’s Equity account - Increase or decrease of capital [Net income/loss, and Drawings]
